Latest Portland City Council Insanity

City Commissioner Chloe Eudaly is requesting $750,000 in city funds to defend people arrested and facing deportation in the Portland area.

"The hostile environment created by our federal administration has required us to give more of ourselves in order to stand united against attacks on our immigrant communities," she wrote in a letter today, announcing her budget request to the Welcoming/Inclusive/Sanctuary City Task Force, which recommended the policy.

Sure. That's a core city function, eh? Can't keep the roads maintained, but they should be able to find 3/4 of a million dollars to defend illegal aliens in courts. As one person noted:

As an immigrant I don't feel any hostility, then again I'm a legal immigrant. Chloe needs to understand the difference. I can't wait for the request for $$ because we create a hostile environment for armed robbers. Now there's some hostility.

Every legal immigrant I've known doesn't like illegal aliens. With good reason.
